Platinum is considering being a Second Party for Nintendo.

Second Party? Nintendo what are you thinking about? You should had bought them long ago. This are the kind of studios Nintendo needs to have another kind of games in their platforms. 

@bolded: I agree. I always wondered why Nintendo didn't maintain a close relationship with Silicon Knights after Eternal Darkness, but then I learned more about Dyack...

Platinum, on the other hand, is a much better fit for Nintendo.

And for all of those people puzzled as to why either party would be interested after the poor sales of The Wonderful 101, just ponder for a moment how well a proper Star Fox could turn out with Platinum at the helm. I seriously doubt that game would bomb.

It doesn't matter if The Wonderful 101 doesn't sell well, Platimun Games has already shown their value. They are good developers, and I agree with you. Clearly Nintendo doesn't know what to do with some of their franchises (Star Fox and Metroid), but Platimun Games has experience enough to make a Star Fox or Metroid game, or even new IP's.
